I've done half commutes a few times now (I have DH take me to work and I bike home afterwards). The dreaded hills (inclines) are getting much easier. Still not fast, still not exactly easy, but *easier*.
I'm enjoying commuting. At some point I plan on doing the entire 22 miles in one day but for the moment the half commute is good for me. I only wish I had more options for roads. My co-workers are constantly telling me how dangerous it is for me to bike on the roads. I am not an idiot, I know the risks. It's disheartening to realize how many people really are scared to ride like I do.

"A bicycle does get you there and more. And there is always the thin edge of danger to keep you alert and comfortably apprehensive. Dogs become dogs again and snap at your raincoat; potholes become personal. And getting there is all the fun."
